Insecure about breast.

[Red_Lauren.]

I know this will sound weird, and my female friends say im weird also when I talk to them about being insecure about my breast. It dosn't help when all my female friends are apparently smaller then me. You have to remember they are middle aged woman, so they have had breast for 30 year now. They are use to having them.

 

Im currently a d cup after 10 months of hormones. Which I figured of I ever got that big. I would have to have a boob job, or a few years of hormones, plus family genetics weren't on my side. 

 

Because I work mostly with woman, and around woman. I hear a lot things about my breast. None of which I have heard was bad. It just gets old hearing. I wish mine were that big, or getting asked if they are real. I'm kinda embarrassed about all the attention they get. 

 

I'm also in secure with how quickly they have grown, and how big they have gotten. I mentioned that to my hairdresser the other day, and she was like this is what you wanted right. I told her yea, but not this quickly, or this big. She then pulled out the mother card on me. She was like I know its scary, and weird to go through this. Especially after 35 years as man, but I know you aren't disappointed. They are just new. Give your body, and your mind time to get use to them. I know she's right, but it dosn't mean I can't be insecure them in the time being. I'm also scared they'll get bigger truthfully. 

 

I'm sure I'm blowing this way out of the water, and mostly venting here, but I don't know what else to do right now..

damn Girl, I'd say take a deep breath and enjoy the ride.   I'm 10 month in as well, had the advantage of starting out with carrying a little weight in my chest and I am only wearing a B right now that I don't even quite fill in as well as I'd like.  I can totally understand being a little freaked out by the speed, I think if I'd moved that fast it would have made my life a little more complicated, but I will also readily admit some jealousy as well

HRT is a crap-shoot.  "You pays your money and you takes your chances."  After five years, I am almost up to an A-cup.  It is a pity we can't split the difference.

 

When I complain to my wife, she says to be thankful that mine are small, because big boobs get you the wrong kind of attention.  Some of the attention you are getting is probably curiosity about whether or not they are real.

 

I don't have any real advice for you.  You could try to brush off the questions with humour, but that can leave a bitter after-taste.  Please feel free to vent here any time you need to.

Kathy Lauren is right. HRT is a crap shoot regarding how "the girls" develop. I fall somewhere in the middle, I guess as mine are in the B cup range after about a year on hormones. That said, the other physical changes are becoming more noticeable, ie: curves, softer skin and diminished beard and body hair growth, etc.  So, I would say, enjoy the ride and, Red_Lauren, as te=hey say, "when you've got 'em, flaunt 'em."

I'm with Kathy Lauren.  About 2 1/2 years on E and A cup on a good day.  

But on the plus side, they are quite real as I am frequently reminded.

Yes, I'm finding out how bumpy the road is too. Only 6 weeks on Estradiol injections only so far, and I can almost fill a 40A (I couldn't when I started), and I've lost nearly 20 pounds from diet and cardio at the same time. Hoping things move a little slower for a while, but happy overall!

Well most of my clients don't know I'm trans. The few that figure it out because I let my voice slip. Will ask of they are real, and my boss who has known the old me. Will chime in if she hears it. Usually in a funny way. Like of course there real. I knew her when she was a he. They are bigger then mine. We have laughed at the shocked faces after they hear that. My hairdresser did also say this. Because I'm a bigger person. That they fit my body well.

Give me a year. Then I'll be ready to flaunt them.

I’m not sure if congratulations is the correct word if you’re ‘concerned’ with them but there are certainly bigger problems to worry about during transition and maybe this is something you can celebrate until it does become an issue. You’re in the lucky minority.

 

I had a BA last January and I thought that after 3 years HRT, I was done growing. I’m very comfortable as a D cup but knew there was always a chance they might get bigger. Obviously, the BA procedure doesn’t stop this growth in any way. For the last 6 weeks, my nipples has been overly sensitive in the same way I experienced the first year of my HRT when I experienced 80% of my breast development. Will I get bigger? The jury is still out. I’m more concerned if they were to start growing uneven rather than bigger. That would require surgery to correct. I guess surgery could be required if they got too big and you started having back issues. That’s a bridge you’re likely not going to cross anytime soon. So if your experiencing nicely shaped and even breast growth, enjoy it. You’ve been blessed!?

Yea my cis friends are more excited then me over my breast. They were also more excited. When I told them I bought some d bras the other day. Ill celebrate one day when I'm not buying new bras every 4 months. 

 

I honestly don't know how big they'll get, but my nipples have been sore again for the last few weeks. I'm sure iam far from being done growing, but only time will tell. As for the shape. To me they look like any other cis breast I've seen. Even my female friends that have seen pictures. Have been suprised how munch like female breast they look. One said if they weren't further part then cis breast. She would have had zero clue. She even mentioned they have a proper sag like woman my age typically have..
